This filing's main purpose is to make the Q2 FY13 earnings announcement publicly available in accordance with disclosure requirements. While the 8-K itself does not contain detailed financial figures, it directs investors to the press release for specific performance metrics. This is a common practice for companies to quickly disseminate earnings information. Investors interested in the quarterly performance of KLA-Tencor should refer to the furnished press release (Exhibit 99.1) for details on revenue, profitability, and any forward-looking statements or management commentary regarding the company's performance and outlook during that period.
